Haimiya-senpai wa Kowakute Kawaii - Ch. 38

[Chronigan]

Weird thing with some translators, like a Ryuu often gets turned into a Ryu. Guess that extra "u" seems weird to some folk?

How many english words have uu in them?

 

[Chronigan]

She feels very OOC this chap

Who? There are two women in this chapter. Assuming you mean Haimiya, how is she acting out of character?

Yeah I meant her. She jist felt overly close in a way that wasn't as pronounced before I guess?

I think that's a sign of their progressing relationship. She hasn't been able to see him in a few days so she's really excited and just wants to play with him.

She is so us rn fr fr.

 

[Hicleric]

...did she always wear her skirt over pants (and if so how am I only noticing this now) ?

Ah, youth, how we love to celebrate what could have been

Kinoshita Kazuya... you should learn from this man

One that I can think of (vacuum), but that's not really relevant when talking about names. Unless you want to localize every Japanese name into something like Steve.

Why not name him Yuuga tho, but Yuga? Makes a bit diffrence in spelling

In proper Hepburn romanization, it would be Yūga, with the long vowel indicated via a macron, but most English speakers don't like diacritics, so you have to decide how you're going to approximate the Ū when anglicizing it. Do you mimic the way the long vowel is notated in kana and double it? Or do you just omit the macron? Both are valid options with their own upsides and downsides, so it's just a matter of personal preference.

Just be glad they're not writing it as "Yu-ga."

I'm personally in favor of just keeping the macron. "Yūga" preserves the fact that it's a long vowel, while most English speakers will likely default to reading it as "Yuga". I've seen a few cases where dropping it actually makes things more confusing by turning it into an English word, like writing Yō as "You" or just "Yo".

Just be glad they're not writing it as "Yu-ga."

I can't for the life of me remember what series it was, but I have seen exactly this and couldn't stop subconsciously reading it as Yu-Gi-Oh lmao.

The nurse represents us

Yuuga -> Yuga is in no way like using the name Steve. Using Romanji is already localizing things.

 

[blablablub]

I wonder if the nurse would survive being invited to their wedding.

 

[draxdeveloper]

I am confused, if you used the furigana, why you named Yusa instead of Yuuga?

 

[Phantommemorial]

Very emo much sugoi

Dont forget their lucky pervert interaction accident a few chapters back

I'm saying that it's irrelevant how many english words have "uu" in them, when the word in question isn't english. To use the example the person you replied to used (Ryuu), I also can't think of that many english words that begin with "ry", but nobody would change that part so I'm not sure why changing "uu" to "u" is so common.

It's not that serious though lol, I was just making a bad joke about using english language norms when talking about japanese names.

I love how much haimiya is like when shes with kurose. She's more comfortable and close to him as before. Beforehand she only liked talking to him because out of everyone, he was the normal one that shes comfortable with and ever since, his perspective on her has changed. He saw her as scary and unexpectedly kind and now hes happy with her and want to be more closer to her. Haimiya is his sun when hes the moon while hes the sun to her moon. I can tell she has feelings for him
